On the integration of the actor model in mainstream technologies : The Scala perspective

• Integrating the actor model into mainstream software platforms is challenging because typical runtime environments, such as the Java Virtual Machine, have been designed for very different concurrency models. Moreover, to enable integration with existing infrastructures, execution modes and constructs foreign to the pure actor model have to be supported. This paper provides an overview of past and current efforts to address these challenges in the context of the Scala programming language.
